STATISTICAL PROPERTIES OF THE MEAN-SQUARE RISK ESTIMATE FOR THE BLOCK THRESHOLD PROCESSING METHOD IN NONPARAMETRIC REGRESSION PROBLEMS WITH A RANDOM GRID

  • O. V. Shestakov

Abstract

Wavelet analysis methods in combination with thresholding procedures are widely used in nonparametric regression problems when estimating a signal function from noisy data. Their popularity is explained by their adaptability to local features of the functions under study, high speed of processing algorithms, and optimality of the estimates obtained. Error analysis of these methods is an important practical task, since it allows one to estimate the quality of both the methods themselves and the equipment used. Sometimes, the nature of the data is such that observations are recorded at random points in time. If the sample points form a variation series of a sample from a uniform distribution over the data recording interval, then the use of standard thresholding procedures is adequate. This paper considers the block thresholdingmethod, in which the wavelet decomposition coefficients are processed in groups that allows one to take into account information about neighboring coefficients. An analysis of the mean square risk estimate of this method is carried out and it is shown that under certain conditions, this estimate turns out to be strongly consistent and asymptotically normal.
